Sessions are done either clothed or unclothed (with towels for draping and with oil), using the therapeutic bodyCushion shown in the pictures here, which substantially enhances your comfort and relaxation during the session, as well as the effectiveness of the work.

All sessions begin with a hands-on assessment to help focus the work.
